Computer assisted medical intervention - KATP9M19

Goal(s)

This course is an introduction to Computer-Assisted Medical Interventions (CAMI) for TIS engineers.

After an introduction to clinical issues, this course covers a brief state-of-the-art of the methods used for medical image analysis (3D images), localization in the operating room and planning of computer-assisted surgery.

A mini-project allows students to invent a fictitious but realistic CAMI device to meet a specific surgical need.
A methodology, based on specific CamiSys diagrams, helps to identify the different components of a CAMI system, and to understand the interactions, data and algorithms required to make it work.

For students in formation continue, a workshop organized by ECCAMI (Excellence Center for Computer Assisted Medical Interventions) provides an opportunity to meet companies from the Grenoble area. During this workshop, CE marked solutions are presented, manipulated and analyzed.

Content(s)

• Introduction
• Navigation
• Imaging
• Registration
  Practical labs are organized for image visualization and processing.
  The CamiSys methodology is applied to CAMI system analysis during tutorials.

This module is complemented by the TDMN module, which covers the aspects of surgical robotics.

A basic knowledge of mathematics (linear algebra, transforms in space, Fourier transforms), computer science, image analysis and processing is not compulsory, but will greatly facilitate understanding of this course.
